+1. Absolutely.
Also, for the same angle of view, 10x8 takes a lens that's twice as long. Then, for the same DOF, you have to go down 2 more stops. Which puts you in reciprocity failure way more often than I'd want. And limits your resolution to the diffraction limit of that stop.
Of course, all that is meaningless is what you really want, is 10x8. In that case, you'll find a way to make it work for you, so go for it. It's about more than just the techie details after all.
